This website (mickidoodle.com) is the home of children’s and middle grade author Micki Doodle and her book series, including Cruisy Susy, Frankie and Crew, and Trail Mix Twins. This page explains, in plain language, what information the site collects and how it is used.
Who this site is for
The books are written for children, but this website and its newsletter are for grown-ups: parents, teachers, librarians, and caregivers. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has sent us personal information, please contact us and we will delete it.
Information we collect
- Newsletter signup. If you join our grown-ups newsletter, we collect your email address (and your first name, if you choose to give it). This is handled by our email service, MailerLite, and is used only to send you book news, new releases, and free printables. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in every email.
- Messages you send us. If you email us or send a school or library visit request, we use the information you share only to reply to you.
- Basic website data. Like most websites, our hosting provider (Hostinger) and WordPress may automatically record technical information such as your IP address, browser type, and the pages you visit. This helps keep the site secure and working properly.
Cookies
This site may use cookies, which are small files stored in your browser, to keep the site working and to understand how it is used. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. The site will still work, though some features may not.
Links to other websites
Our pages link to other sites, including Amazon (where the books are sold), our series websites, and social media sites such as Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest, and TikTok. Those sites have their own privacy policies, and we are not responsible for how they handle your information. Please review their policies before sharing personal details.
How we protect and share your information
We do not sell or rent your information. We share it only with the services needed to run the site and the newsletter (such as Hostinger and MailerLite), or if the law requires it.
Your choices
You can ask us to see, correct, or delete the personal information we hold about you at any time. To unsubscribe from the newsletter, use the unsubscribe link at the bottom of any email.
Changes to this policy
If we change this policy, we will post the new version here and update the date at the top.
